| Astronaut Thad Puckleberry says he "feels terrible" about the mistake |
Oregon Orbs president Fennis "Junior" Gweech said the company produced the defective globes after astronaut Thad Puckleberry, who had just returned from the International Space Station, told Oregon Orbs that the earth was actually oval shaped rather than round. "He was so passionate about it that he convinced us," said Gweech. "Then we found out later the guy has horrible eyesight and can't see his hand in front of his face. How does a guy like that become an astronaut?"
